Photolisting Profile for Bobby

Bobby is a 11-year-old boy from Texas who is hoping to be adopted.

Bobby is a little boy with a great laugh. He is considerate, genuine in his care for others, and loves being helpful. Bobby really likes playing board games, basketball, and with his super hero action figures. Bobby enjoys spending his summer vacation at the swimming pool or camp. He was very proud when he was awarded the "Best Male Soccer Player Certificate" this last summer at camp. Bobby likes to give hugs when he feels comfortable doing so. He desires and does well when he receives individual attention from an authority figure such as teacher or parent. Bobby will require extra assistance with his school work in order to reach his full potential. He sometimes needs to be reminded to stay on task and will need to be encouraged to express his feelings in an appropriate way.

Bobby's adoptive family need to be prepared to be patient and understanding to Bobby's individual needs. He needs a family that will be a strong advocate for him at school in order to ensure that all of his educational needs are met. Bobby's family also needs to be ready to embrace him with love and assurance. He needs to feel safe and cared for and would do best in a home that could provide consistency, patience, structure and supervision. He would also do best in a home where he is either the youngest child or the only child.
